Hello jon,

What I "understand" or, more accurately, what I "know" is that you do not have HIV. And I also know you don't use the spell check function on your computer ("expically . . . writs . . . unforntaly . . .").

Jon, once again I urge you to stop chasing a disease you could not possibly have and to see a psychiatrist.
